I stayed at this resort on a business trip the week of June 22nd, 2008. This was a very nice resort but the beach was ugly and dirty. If you are looking for a resort with a nice clean beach with crystal clear water, go to Cancun. If you are looking for a very nice, clean, safe and relaxing vacation, this is the place for you. Lots of activities ...

ripped off
By A Yahoo! Contributer, 05/01/08
Over Spring break in 2008 I took 11 family members including 5 children to this hotel. All of the ads, website and reviews say there are wonderful water sports, including snorkelling, kayaking, surfing, sailing, plus biking. All of these are very important to the family. When we arrived we were told for the first time that none of these ...

It was a nice, young family's vacation spot.
By A Yahoo! Contributer, 02/16/08
We read many reviews before going and it truly is a hotel for young families. I laughed reading about one couple going for a romatic holiday after having been there. The guest are very friendly and the staff was wonderful. We stayed for 2 weeks over the Christmas holiday and it was like being at a Family Christmas and New Years eve with 2000 of ...

Great Hotel, Neglected Beach..Beautiful Ixtapa!!
By maria, 01/26/08
HOTEL IS GREAT! BUT THE BEACH IS NEGLECTED!!...it is a shame that the Guerreo authorities allows this beautiful beach to get wasted. all you can see at walking by the beach is darkened sand due to the zillion boats transporting tourists to the main island. it reminds me the late Patzcuaro lake.. so beautiful 30 years ago and so dead now! please do something! the Barcelo is Better.. Sorry.

Things you should know before you book
By A Yahoo! Contributer, 08/25/07
I've been to really nice resorts in Mexico that have raised the bar very high. After those experiences, the Melia Azul was quite disappointing. Unless you like the prospects of getting very sick from the resort's food, sweating profusely in most restaurants (all but one have no air conditioning), dealing with lots of steps to get around, ...

Melia Azul - OK but not good enough to recommend
By A Yahoo! Contributer, 08/15/07
Likes: The location. Ocean view and beach are very nice. Friendly staff.
Dislikes: Restaurant food ranged from poor to fairly good. Most restaurants were not air conditioned... and were rather hot. 3 of 4 family members got very sick while eating at the resort (likely from the salad bar). Very limited entertainment activities compared to ...

relaxing
By yayeeya09, 07/21/07
The Melia was a great escape.It is different from your typical beach resorts in Mexico. My husband and I were able to simply relax. The hotel is great...I cant stop talking about the service..they were very professional and extremely nice. The food was good although somewhat repetative...we opted out for dinner once. Although I must say that the ...

Nice place to hang out with kids
By skl_91, 06/19/07
Everyone was very nice. They made an effort to take care of whatever request we had. I travelled with my wife, mother-in-law, and three kids (all under the age of 5) and we had a very nice time.
They night entertainment was okay, except for the Circus night, which was amazing.
We followed the recommendations from other travelers to make ...

Ixtapa Island is Beautiful
By A Yahoo! Contributer, 02/28/07
Just returned Feb.26th. Hotel is very clean, but some rooms have a bit of a sewer smell close to them(friends of ours experienced that). Ours was very good, but a little difficult to control the c/a. View from the room is fabulous and if you upgade to a balcony, you will really enjoy it. Not all rooms have fridges and there was no coffee maker in ...
